Those definitely belong here. :p

Haha, I figured, but I didn't want you or c9 going off on me, lol. If you want to transfer those, then feel free, if not, they are fine in their own thread for now.

Don't worry I already reported your little thread. Off to BBC with you!

Edit: Yes, seriously I reported it. No need for that crap cluttering up the pristine space that is Cash Games. :)

I'm assuming at the BC store the bonus' you can buy are purchased with FTP's? If they are then wow, that's a massive improvement in player rewards from FT. I'm not sure if they're over priced but it's straight up bonus and I'm sure is the best way to spend FTP's from now on.

EDIT: Lol posted in wrong thread (always wondered how someone could do that) but I'll leave it here. Also, I think the previous way to spend FT points was tourney tickets or not at all. A $256 ticket to the Sunday brawl costs 55k FTP's. A bonus from the BC store for $250 costs 65k. If you enjoy tournaments then I'm sure spending them on tickets is still legit, but for pure cash grinders, there's no contest now.

Thinking it through, the rakeback will hit it obv, but I'm still sure it's a viable option.

I still prefer the Stars store to the FTP store by a long way...:)

Just got back from local casino, rake is up from 5% to 10% (and cap from £5 to £6), urgh!

Almost felt bad for the guy til I remembered he called with 32s from the BB. **** him! Looked him up on PTR and it appears that his 1st deposit was 2 days ago and he down nearly $500. Guess I'm not the only lucky SoB on FTP. :)

October is going well, up a little bit, although that's mainly due to under-rolled shot-taking :eek: Anyone got any goals for the month? Mine are:

1 - Make video
2 - 30k hands (will be pretty tricky being back at uni/playing HU)
3 - Move up 10nl

Hello October I like to greet you late because bachelor parties need recovery periods.

Only played live this month so far and it hasn't really gone so well :S.

Table started around 8pm, I go to sit down and there are two chinese players buying in for full (£100 25p/50p) having the rules explained to them. Things were looking good, Got it in with QQ against both of them one had 99 the other 55, 5 on flop, one stack gone. I re bought.

QQ again, some guy who was a flat out tagfish who thought he was the best thing to ever happen to poker, some player opens gets 2 callers, he also calls, and I 3bet on the btn he called other two fold. He has 77 and hits a set on the flop, I mucked the river and he asked to see which made me rage so much inside.

AK raise, two callers, AA4 flop, get donked into and I call for some reason the dealer starts mucking the flop and shuffling, floor comes over says split the pot and redeal. the guy who donked into me had A5.

QQ again... and my half stack doubles up vs my friends 88 always sweet vs a friend. The tagfish was still pissing me off no end, made a few plays against him and got him to tilt off a bit was funny. Kept asking to see my cards mucked non showdown pots, calling me a donk etc. manage to get back to
£95 and i had to go at 1:30, i got AA around 1:27, raise it, one caller, 975 flop, i cbet get raised by some kid donk, i put him in he calls with J7, 7 on the river.

left with £65. back to the online i guess.

My october goal is 30,000 hands. I didn't play the first, but I got 1300 in yesterday. I actually was playing with Jim Mcmanus on full tilt yesterday on a $10buyin nl table. Don't why he was playing that low but it was definitely him. First time I played with a pro in cash game.

He plays 10NL fairly often. I've seen him there before quite a few times.

So far this month I am up 6 1/2 buy-ins and have 4500 hands and I'm about to move up to the next level. Played a little bit there last night with Pooffy until I got booted for some reason. Good start to the month.

Good to hear. I'm down 6 1/2 so far haha, 5600 hands in so at least there's some volume in there. Hopefully it will turn around :)
